Extremities

Directed by Maurice Costello
1913    7mShort, Comedy
Noticeable among the feet proceeding up the gangplank of the steamer are those of Gladys Robinson, a pretty young girl; Edwin Bartells, a nice young man, and the flat feet of Priscilla Primps, an easily scandalized old maid. Watching the movements of these feet about the deck tells an interesting story. The feet of Gladys come along the deck, she is evidently seeking her steamer chair. After she has found it the flat feet of Priscilla are seen wandering in the neighborhood. She also finds her chair, next to that of Gladys, and seats herself in it. Very shortly the feet of Edwin wander along. It is easily seen by their movement that he has discovered Gladys. The porter's feet then get a move on them; he is off to look for Edwin's chair, which he brings and places on the deck between Priscilla and Gladys. The feet and hands of Priscilla execute several staccato movements; she is greatly shocked by the scandalous conduct of these two young people. The courtship of the young folks progresses rapidly, Edwin at last placing an engagement ring on the finger of Gladys. Priscilla's feet grow wildly excited as those of Gladys rise from the ground and it is seen by their position that she is sitting happily on Edwin's knee. The feet of the three people get hopelessly tangled, bringing them all to the deck with a thump, at last revealing the players to the interested observer, who has so far seen nothing but extremities.
